Description

A rare opportunity to own a stunning Algarve villa built around a historic 1783 windmill. This beautifully renovated home features a heated pool, mature gardens, and total privacy on nearly 20,000 m of land. Just 10 minutes from Lagos and close to the Costa Vicentina, perfect for nature lovers, surfers, and those seeking tranquility.

Nestled in the tranquil countryside just outside Barão de São Miguel, this exquisite traditional Algarve villa is a rare gem that perfectly blends authentic Portuguese charm with modern comforts. Just ten minutes from Lagos and close to the breathtaking Costa Vicentina, this property is ideal for those who appreciate privacy, nature, and a unique historical touch. Set on nearly 20,000 m of land, the villa offers unparalleled seclusion, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, a lush fruit orchard, and a swimming pool.

The swimming pool benefits from using salt water rather than chlorine. Additionally, a pool safety fence is in place for children and to comply with letting regulations. One of the most unique features of this home is its integration with a historic windmill dating back to 1783, where the original wooden mechanisms and grindstones remain intact, adding a remarkable sense of character and history. The house is all on one level, designed for comfort and easy indoor-outdoor living.

The main wing includes three bedrooms, with the master suite enjoying its own private en-suite bathroom, while the other two share a stylish and well-appointed family bathroom. A separate annex area provides additional accommodation, featuring its own en-suite bathroom and dressing area, making it perfect for guests or private use.

The kitchen is spacious and well-connected to the dining room, creating a welcoming space for entertaining. The living room is bright and airy, with large patio doors opening onto the stunning pool area, while a grand fireplace adds warmth and charm. There is also a sunroom that doubles as a TV lounge, bathed in natural light from a central skylight. The property benefits from its own borehole water supply; although mains water is connected, it is currently not used.

The natural water is extremely pure and very soft for drinking and washing. There are insect screens fitted on all windows. The property is fully fenced with a secure gate, ensuring security and peace of mind. Additional features include a garage, central heating, and an automatic irrigation system to maintain the lush gardens effortlessly.

A purpose-built Gardener s Shed is also present on the property, along with a small barn located opposite the entrance to the villa, which serves as a secure storage area. The surrounding landscape offers endless opportunities for hiking and mountain biking, while the famous surfing beaches of the west coast are just a short drive away. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Algarve history while enjoying the comfort and tranquility of a beautifully renovated country home. Book your private viewing today.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Portugal will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £30,955 more.
